I was reading some of the comments where some are buying the New Year Sampler chart and Vince said he needs to have a discussion with all the husbands. He said for a donation, he will keep me quiet about my purchases. I said “How would you do that?” and he hasn’t figured that out yet so . . I suggest if you see a message from my husband to your husband . . you might want to delete it! 🙂

The other day I commented to my husband that I felt had been spending too much money buying charts, fabric and floss lately. His retort was I was spending less than he did so don’t worry about it. It now has me wondering how much he’s been spending….lol. Then, yesterday when I was telling him the difference in price between DMC and other threads he told me not to sacrifice the design and buy the more expensive thread. So, I think Vince won’t be receiving money from my husband to keep you quiet…at least not for now anyway!! 😀

Great! It sounds like, whatever he’s buying, at least he has an appreciation for your hobby too.

Judy, I get packages from Double D Ranchwear, my husband has never said much about all the boxes that occasionally come. But, here lately he’s been opening the boxes, saying he’s helping me see what I got quicker !! I think he’s wondering what I bought or how much I spent, so to curb his inquisitive mind, I called my friend at Double D and ask, please don’t enclose the sales slip just email it to me and just send the return form in case something doesn’t fit !! he He !! He really doesn’t care what I spend, as he’s a big salt water fisherman and between his fishing toys, his offshore fishing trips and fishing trips to Costa Rica several times a year he has no room to say a word !! I do enjoy his fishing hobby immensely, due to the fact the fish taste excellent, he’s gone for days and sometimes for a week or more at a time !! So he might not be party to Vince’s donation solicitation’s !! B/c if I take up cross stitch or needle point again, it could cost him even more !! Take care.. oh, are you & Addie still singing Girls From Texas ?

Well I have spent a little on 5 charts and a bit of new floss, all at a local store, all the while repeating, ‘I am a quilter’! One of the employees said, ‘you do know where you are?’ ‘Yes, but I AM a quilter!’ She laughed and wrote the order for “Always Thankful”. But today I unboxed the Ninja Foodie appliance (heard about from you) and now have to find space (off counter) for the second, smaller Instant Pot (you, again) and from even farther back, the Cuisinart Griddler. Speaking of being a quilter….well let’s not! Only one finished that I started with you, and I love it! I need to get it hung or get another bed! Thankfully, realistically, my husband’s attitude was much the same as Vince’s!!
